When Xin Yue opened his eyes slowly and blinked for a moment, a warm, gentle breeze caressed his face, causing his long, thick eyelashes to flutter. Xin Yue yawned and gently stood up from the bed while staring at the widely open balcony door where the warm, gentle breeze was coming from. A lot of things were going through Xin Yue's head.
Last night..... The origin of this original body was revealed. To think that he was a product of a one-night stand——I mean a carefree constellation... That doesn't make sense... I never heard this part of the story from Grandma even if she repeated it again and again every bedtime. It feels like my life is getting deeper and deeper, it's complicated.
"Your Highness Xin Yue, I am glad you're now awake." The door creaked open and a feminine voice was heard at the same moment, shocking Xin Yue.
A tall, attractive woman bent gently to him, her face expressionless. Her eyes were painted an ink-black hue, and her straight, flowing midnight-black hair reached her waist. She was also dressed entirely in black, with golden bamboo leaves stitched all over her robe. Xin Yue turned his attention to the woman's face as he lowered his gaze to the katana on her waist that was wearing a simple black scabbard. "You.... Who are you?"
The woman didn't change her expression as she replied, "This subordinate apologizes for not introducing myself earlier. I am Xiang Chen, Her Majesty the Moon God assigned me to protect you and check on you at all times."
Xin Yue raised his eyes, "So...... You're my full-time guard?" The woman blinked with a blank expression and stood straight, "Yes, Your Highness." She replied bluntly with a single nod and continued, "Her Majesty the Moon God and the others are waiting for you downstairs for breakfast, this subordinate will guide you. Please follow me."
Xiang Chen began to walk, and Xin Yue softly trailed after. They were walking in a certain way for a while, and he was in a haze because everything was still processing within his mind. When Xin Yue raised his head to look at the symbols carved into the palace ceiling, he saw a large, bright crystallized moon in the center surrounded by various crystallized lunar phases. The massive crystallized moon was exquisitely decorated with a glass chandelier that was twinkling slightly from the light and making a clanking sound.
Around him, everything was exquisite. Because they were worth more than his life, he thought he shouldn't touch them. Given that a member of the Royal Family of Gods resided there, the Moon Palace was enormous and expansive, resembling two imperial palaces combined. When Xiang Chen and Xin Yue reached the top of the long, perfectly white spiral staircase, Xiang Chen opened the enormous double door and bowed modestly to the guests inside. "This subordinate greets the Moon God and her children, His Highness Xin Yue is now here."
With no shame, Xin Yue kept moving forward, toward the spacious dining hall. His long black and blue hair was a little loose and disheveled, and he was dressed in his simple white two-layered robe from the previous evening. The Moon God who was sitting at the edge of the long white table smiled at him and spoke, "Did you have a good sleep? I'm sorry if we suddenly called you and you couldn't even get ready. You need to eat first considering that you haven't eaten for days."
